“We are increasingly committed to identifying and combating fraud and energy theft with a focus on increasing the quality and reliability of the energy supply offered. The efforts are part of the company's ongoing work and are made possible both through partnerships with public bodies and police authorities, as well as by investing in cutting-edge technology and team specialization in monitoring and analysis processes”, said Roberto Sartori, president of CPFL Paulista .
“It is important to clarify that energy theft is a crime, can pose risks to people's safety and directly harms the population with instability in energy supply and loss of tax revenue, which are important for maintaining public services in the municipality. Therefore, CPFL maintains an easy and anonymous reporting channel for anyone who wants to report possible cases of fraud”, highlighted Rafael Lazzaretti, the group's commercial director.
